Beechwood Hotel & Restaurant in North Norfolk

Our first visit to the Beechwood Hotel and a superb Sunday afternoon lunch with the family. A place steeped in history, with a beautiful art-deco theme throughout, we were welcomed by friendly, attentive and first-class staff. Our meal was presented and cooked exactly as ordered and the flavours and taste were exceptional. We will return..

A group of us went for the pre Christmas menu lunch at the Beechwood restaurant. We had been for this lunch for several years, and had enjoyable meals and service. Sadly this meal left a lot to be desired. Very expensive for a very average meal. The roast potatoes and parsnips were not crispy, and drenched in luke warm gravy. Rest of the meal was luke warm, too. We were given carrot and leek 'veloute; with nutmeg crumb; it was soup, without the crumb. The chocolates that came after the meal were soft and melting. Before the meal we had a drink from the bar, and were offered some limp circles of cucumber, topped with lump of cooked mushroom, to accompany.

Food was very nice but the prices of the wine (bottle) and single whiskey was surprisingly high! They sell the wine, we purchased for meal, online from their own website for £10 but increase the price to £29.95 at the table! i understand a mark up on a bottle of wine but that is unacceptable. Will not return for this reason.

It’s a beautiful building, the staff are wonderful and super friendly, made a refreshing change. The cons … dated inside, I love the 30s style but this needed a facelift. The restaurant had a huge bowl of flowers on a solo table, dark table cloths and somber music played on piano, it could have all worked but we felt we were at a wake.. the food was ok, but not worth the prices to be honest.

We picked the Beechwood for our wedding anniversary meal and were not disappointed with the whole experience. From getting there to leaving nothing could be faulted. The food was uniformly excellent, and service was too. We had the three course menu, and had their special of Pheasant breast for main course, which was delicious. We will be back.

My wife and I last stayed at the Beechwood Hotel some 8 years ago under previous ownership so we knew we would be staying in a very prestigious looking building with large beautiful grounds and a long history of famous guests. From the moment of our arrival we appreciated the numerous, tasteful and expensive improvements made by the current owners. The whole hotel is absolutely immaculate. Every area is spotlessly clean and beautifully decorated throughout in high class Art Deco furniture, mirrors and art work; the theme even extended to the superbly covered menus. We stayed for afternoon cream tea served on the lawn, a four course dinner cooked to perfection by a team of four top chefs and a superb tummy stretching breakfast. I must add the food, all locally sourced, is of the finest quality and portion size is generous. I could mention many other aspects in detail, the excellent staff ( especially Jess and Phoebe) , the specialty marmalade, the delicious Lobster, the wide range of really good wines and the good parking facilities with baggage help if requested. To sum up : a real jewel of a hotel and we will be back for one of the future themed evenings.

An excellent 7 course taster menu at the Beechwood this evening to celebrate our 45th wedding anniversary. The hotel has a delightful country house ambience yet is only a five minute from North Walsham town centre and has some nice art deco furnishings throughout. The menu was exceptional value at £70 per head, and my wife enjoyed the wine flight, just £30 for two glasses of red, two white, dessert and port, all well chosen to match the food. The menu is available on the website, but I will attach some pictures, suffice to say all was delicious, and nicely explained by the young waiting staff. Very well recommended for a special evening.

Wonderful overnight stay at this lovely boutique hotel. Met by friendly receptionist Rachel who gave us a brief overview of the hotel layout whilst her colleague took our bags to the room. The room was a delight. It was a four poster with a good sized living area and an enormous bathroom. Very airy and comfortable. We had afternoon tea and a delicious evening meal in the restaurant. The waiting staff are friendly and professional without being intrusive. The maitre d’ did a wonderful job as she worked both the evening meal and breakfast the next day. Our breakfast was fresh and individually prepared. Plenty of tea and toast. My wife had the vegetarian breakfast and I had possibly the tastiest smoked salmon and scrambled eggs I’ve ever had at breakfast. Well done to everyone, proof that properly trained and motivated locals can do hospitality. At the Beechwood they do it exceptionally well. We really enjoyed our brief stay and will definitely return.

Wonderful service, dining and all round amazing experience. Rooms, luxurious traditional styling, comfy bed and deep slipper bath and shower…! Restaurant, excellent choices , well prepared, presented and so many delicious courses and a relaxing breakfast the next morning, rounds off a fabulous overnight stay on their Dinner, bed and breakfast deal…! A definite future visit for my Galloping Gourmate pals…

Had a look on reviews tbh and wasn't disappointed. Quality food and service.When next in the area will probably stay here as well as eat here

Our group of 35 (classic car club members) just spent 3 lovely nights here. It was superb from our greeting upon arrival, the one off complimentary cream tea in the garden and the fabulous breakfasts and dinners. The staff were friendly, well presented, and attentive to everyone. Probably the best staff and hotel we have stayed in in our classic car outings. For those who would like to venture out, four of us took the train into Norwich which was only a 25 minute journey. The cathedral is worth a visit if you like that sort of thing. We went to Horsey to see the seals on the beach and also took the train from Holt to Sheringham..that too was about 25 minutes, £37-00 for two. It was a treat to come back and have pre dinner drinks in the Art Deco bar. The hotel had a special guest years ago when it was a gp surgery. Agatha Christie stayed and wrote a book here. I highly recommend.

It was ok, no extra savoury at all apart from the sandwiches , the last time I was there it had small sausage rolls which were special, then the tables around were being laid for dinner which for the sake of a little bit longer, could’ve waited to save us listening to all the hotel gossip. We will still go back and try again.

We enjoyed a Sunday lunch at the Beechwood and found it much improved from our "pre-covid" visits when we had always considered it pretty mediocre. This time the service and food was much improved and we will return before too long

We have visited the Beechwood several times but not stayed overnight before. This first stay was for our 36th Wedding Anniversary and it was memorable for many reasons. Emma and Hugh are superb hosts and have a great team around them, not least our evening waiter, Connor. We were kindly upgraded and had a really comfortable 4-poster room. The inclusive rate was exceptionally good value and the food and wine were certainly 5* as we experienced on previous visits. We are excited to learn of the Beechwood's acquisition of Mellasat Wine Farm in Paarl (South Africa) and look forward to sampling some of their excellent wines in the not too distant future at the Beechwood. Thank you all so very much. Happy New Year.

We had afternoon tea on arrival with a delicious scone jam and cream and tea. Dinner starts in the bar with drinks and canapes and the restaurant never disappoints the food is delicious and the service really good as nothing is too much trouble.

We came here for our third anniversary and if I could give them 6 stars I would From the moment we arrived we were stunned by the fabulous decor and how welcoming everyone at the hotel were Our room was absolutely beautiful with everything we needed We were served scones with cream and jam which were delicious We looked at the evening menu and couldn’t wait to try it We were not disappointed- everything we had was beautifully cooked and presented and it was all washed down with a 2019 Rioja Breakfast was equally as good as everything was cooked fresh with the best ingredients We were so sorry to leave here that we will definitely return

First time we have been to this hotel and it is one of those places where you know you will be returning to as many times as possible. On arrival we were met by the owner who met us as we parked our car and who insisted on taking our luggage directly to our room before we even had time to check in. Cream tea was served in the bar by very friendly staff which set the visit off very well. Our room had a large four poster bed and was extremely well appointed, very comfortable. the bar and restaurant was very much Art Deco and had been effected very smartly. The food served to us at breakfast and dinner was to a very high standard, it was nice to have linen tablecloth and napkins at all times and the serving staff were as friendly and helpful at all times, nothing was too much trouble.

Had a family Sunday lunch here. The food was lovely and the service was impeccable, all for under £30 for three courses.

This was a one night stay to celebrate our 12th wedding anniversary. From the moment we entered the hotel up to the time we checked out we could not fault the staff. They are polite, friendly, helpful and make you feel very welcome. The reason I booked this hotel was the hotels reputation for fine food and the fact it is also dog friendly. The meal we had was superb, I now have to try and replicate the sun dried tomato butter we had with crusty bread as a pre-starter and the Madagascan sauce my wife had with her steak. We both loved the art deco bar area and being able to open our bedroom door directly onto the rear garden. We both highly recommend the Beechwood Hotel either for a stay or to try out their wonderful restaurant.

Great service, friendly and attentive, very good decor, but the food is absolutely plain considering the apparent reputation of this restaurant and its price. We went there for our 14th wedding anniversary, the first with our 8-months-old son, so we were looking for a special...

We had a very good meal, with attentive staff. We sat by the window which was a little chilly. We would return.

Service in restaurant could not get slower. Waited over an hour for starters. Food lacked any imagination and totally lacking in taste or finesse. There are four stars on the AA sign outside. The meal would hardly qualify for 2. Won’t bother again.

We stayed here in August, and I reviewed it then. You always wonder if it will be as good second time, but I need not have been concerned. Excellent accommodation, staff, and a delicious evening meal. The dining room was very busy, but as previously...

Returned to this hotel for another overnight trip with two of our friends and had a wonderful time, as always. Excellent hotel, food varied and so very good. Staff wonderful, efficient and friendly. Love this place.

We were not staying at the hotel but had heard such good things about the meal time experience that we booked a table over the phone where we were asked if it was s special occasion (it was our wedding anniversary). From the moment we arrived we were greeted and treated as though we were stars, pre drinks and complimentary canapes in the bar then taken through to the beautifully decorated 1920/30's restaurant Food was out of this world, wine delicious and the whole team working there attentive friendly and engaging. Back to the bar after dinner for more drinks where a cake with sparkler was brought out to us by the staff. Altogether a wonderful night to remember. We will be back and next time to stay at the hotel as other guests (most returning for a number of years) that we sat in the bar sharing drinks with could not speak highly enough of their experience here. A wonderful gem hidden in a little village. Thank you for making our anniversary so special.

What can we add to the excellent reviews already posted for this hotel? We would say that it is the best hotel we have ever stayed in. From the moment we arrived, with a friendly welcome in the car park, to the point of departure, we could not fault this hotel in any way. Our room was very well appointed with a comfortable bed, good bathroom with shower cubicle, walk-in wardrobe and the usual tea and coffee-making facilities (fresh coffee with a cafetiere in the room was a treat rather than the usual instant stuff). There was a good quality radio in the room and I'm sure the television would have been good too but we didn't watch it. We had booked a package which included a cream tea (scones, jam, cream with prosecco) on the first day. This was excellent. The food was delicious (breakfast and evening meal) on all three days. We could not fault anything - locally produced meat and fish, all beautifully cooked and served. Every member of the team working there, from the owner to the chef, were very professional; friendly and efficient in everything they were doing. We will certainly be paying another visit.

We arrived to be immediately greeted outside the front entrance of the hotel by the actual owner wanting to assist with our bags etc.The check in process, faultless. Shown to our room where everything was explained, and then shown round the hotel itself.The level of quality provided by the staff with respect to customer service is not something we have experienced before, Excellent.The restaurant is also really really good. The food especially at evening meal is of a fantastic quality, if you visit you should not be disappointed. The breakfast is also very good. Everything you should require to set you up for the day.We do not normally return to somewhere we have visited previously, but have had no hesitation in booking a further visit later on this year.Thank you to all concerned for making our visit one to remember.

As we got out of our car on arrival we were greeted by the manager Hugh welcoming us and asking to take our bag, this was typical we later found out of all the staff friendly attentive and nothing was too much trouble. The room was tastefully done as is the hotel with an Art Deco theme. We had a cream tea and Prosecco in the afternoon very nice. The evening meal was superb from the canapés to the deserts in a lovely restaurant. The owners clearly want everybody to have a good experience and work very hard at it. Looking forward to another visit.

A delightful and unforgettable meal. Food was very tasty and all staff were friendly and professional.

Couldn’t fault anything. When we arrived we were met in the car park where we were helped with our bags. We had afternoon tea where the scones were delicious. Our room was very nice lovely shower with loads of hot water. In the evening our meal was excellent very good chef. The breakfast was also excellent all local sourced food. The owner & staff were friendly & couldn’t do enough for you nothing was too much trouble. We will returning.

Truly remarkable establishment with a great owner and attentive staff. My fiancée and I stayed in one of the new Garden Spa rooms and the room did not disappoint at all. The jacuzzi outside was an amazing experience in itself, lovely temperature, easy to use, complete privacy as well. The sauna was also easy to use and enjoyable. The actual bedroom was clean and nicely decorated and the bed was so comfy, we could have laid in, all morning. The bathroom was finished to a high standard and the copper bath was the standout feature. Great accommodation - highly recommend. Also the 4 course a la carte dining was delicious and the afternoon tea when we arrived was again like everything else at this establishment - perfect. The place is spotlessly clean and we are definitely going to return.

Just had a lovely overnight stay at this hotel in one of their 4 poster bedrooms. Impressed from the moment we arrived. Greeted by Dale who showed us around the hotel and to our room.We had afternoon tea and the scones were very big so we would have liked a little more clotted cream and jam – minor whinge. We decided to have a walk into town (5 mins. away). Not a lot to see, it seems to be full of takeaways. Although the church is quite interesting in the centre of town.Upon arriving for our evening meal we were greeted by Hugh (the owner), who was very friendly and told us a little bit about the history of the Hotel and the connection with Agatha Christie.Our menu choices were taken in the bar by Rachel who was very professional at her job and very easy to talk to. Prior to going to the dining room we were served canapes in the bar. Upon being seated at our table and before the starter we were served a delicious amuse bouche. My choices were scallops, venison and brioche pudding. From the first mouthful to the last -absolutely delicious. Followed by coffee in the bar.We will be back!

We ate here whilst staying for a night. We had 3 courses and coffee afterwards. The salmon and prawn fishcake was lovely; goats cheese tart was excellent and different. My main course of Venison was OK, although I prefer a thicker cut as a personal choice. My wife's pan-fried lamb (which I had a taste of) was plentiful and delicious. Cheese desert was 4 very good choices, and the Chocolate Delice was just that. Service was friendly and attentive. The ambience of the dining room was good for us a couple but something was lacking although not sure what. All in all an excellent meal and highly recommend.

You will have to go a long way to find a hotel that offers the same standard and quality of service as the Beechwood. I cannot speak highly enough of this establishment and very much look forward to staying again in 2020.

From the moment we got there the welcome was exceptional the room had a four poster bed which was so comfortable to sleep in. And the staff made us feel so welcome.

Booked through Secret Escapes. Booking included afternoon tea with fizz. Room was beautiful. What their website doesnt tell you is that the hotel is fitted with Art Deco style. Agatha Christie was a very good friend of the doctors who own the building. We had canapes the pre starter of ventinue then our 3 course meal. Which was delicious. After we had petit fours and coffee at no extra charge. Breakfast was fab. Local produce very nice. My husband I will be back. Would recommend this hotel to anyone who enjoys nice surroundings. I forgot about the rooms ! Claw foot bath. Shower. Bed you just fell into and felt you were being cuddled. I dont sleep very well but did that night.

Tasting evening was fantastic as has been every visit. Nothing more to say really. Keep up the great work kitchen, bar and dining room staff.

A drink in the bar was accompanied by complimentary canapés. Service was exemplary. Lunch was well cooked, beautifully served and preceded by a complimentary amused bouche.

What a wonderful find! We planned the weekend trip to Norfolk to coincide with a Friday night football game in Norwich and a travelzoo deal to stay at the Beechwood Hotel in nearby north Walsham seemed too good to miss. From the moment we were greeted in the car park by the owner Hugh, to a brief tour of the hotel, followed by being shown to our fabulous four poster room and then the welcome afternoon tea with scones in the Art Deco styled lounge....we were hooked. A perfect night’s sleep and invigorating power shower (hard to choose between the walk-in shower and sumptuous free standing bath!) before a super cooked breakfast was a great start to the day. All the staff are so friendly and attentive and go out of their way to please. We couldn’t fault the delicious evening meal. Friends who live in Norwich came to join us and all four of us were delighted with the quality, choice and presentation of the food from the amouse bouche to the petit fours with coffee. The chef is superb and the memorable meal is one of the nicest I have tasted in a while. I type this review while sitting on the comfy sofa in our room and am so looking forward to our final night here and Sunday lunch tomorrow before we have to leave. I can honestly say that we will be planning another trip to Norfolk next year to stay in this wonderful hotel again and use it as a base to explore more of the lovely surrounding area. I cannot hesitate to recommend this hotel.

Staff are so helpful and friendly and the food is fantastic. Its so close to the town and had parking. Great feel to the place atmosphere A true little gem

Extremely well organised evening with a terrific cuisine, brilliant service and friendly attentive staff

Great hotel and restaurant, I would recommend to anyone and everyone. Christmas meal already booked and excited for our visit. Afternoon teas enjoyed through the year and the food is always excellent. Staff always go the extra mile.

During my stay in North Walsham enjoyed an excellent working lunch in this stunning hotel. Our afternoon tea included a vegetarian selection for me and my colleague had the standard selection. Delicious especially the beetroot sandwiches and scones. Plenty of tea and very attentive staff. Highly recommended.

We visit the Beechwood at least once a year for a weekend, sometimes twice and have been staying for 5 years. All the staff are all excellent, from the owner and his wife to the cleaners and waiting staff. The rooms are very comfortable, they accept dogs in some rooms which is great for us. There is a great choice of drinks and a good wine list. The food is always first class using fresh local ingredients. We tried locally shot Partridge, Brancaster Mussels ( twice as they are so good), locally caught Hake and Halibut, but there is always other dishes if you are not into fish or game, a very good selection. We have booked to return twice next year and are looking forward to it already. We met three couples this weekend who said it was their first visit and all said it won't be the last. With a great breakfast choice as well, the Kipper was especially good as was the English Breakfast.

Wow! What a wonderful hotel. We were greeted by the manger in the car park as we arrived. That fantastic warm welcome continued for the weekend by all the staff. The hotel & room were spotlessly clean, the history of the hotel is very interesting - a must for Agatha Christy fans and the food is to die for. Talking to other guests who were staying for the 10th time, it is very clear that you may arrive as guests but you leave feeling like friends and repeat customers. We have stayed in a lot of hotels, but this is the only one that we plan to go back to. Thank you to all the staff for their hard work xx

My wife and I purchased a Travel Zoo voucher as we have a holiday home about 20 minutes away.

Excellent hotel and restaurant with outstanding staff. Well priced wine list and good selection from the a la carte menu. We will certainly return for another short break.

We ate in the restaurant all three nights we stayed at the hotel, all the staff were cheerful and made the effort, not something that comes with the territory in the UK normally.

Absolutely wonderful 3 day stay, couldn't fault it.

What can I say.. friendly staff and well presented building.. however the food was some what underwhelming.. I was hoping for more after the reviews I read in trip advisor. But unfortunately the food was stuck in the past.. the cooking and presentation were fine but uninspired. Felt like it was stuck in a time warp of the mid 90s. :(

What a wonderful late August break we’ve enjoyed at the Beechwood Hotel. We have stayed in many nice hotels and eaten at some quality restaurants over the years but The Beechwood Hotel and Restaurant surpassed our expectations in every way and the customer service we received from every staff member was truly outstanding. The little touches matter and they were a delight to experience throughout our stay: the owner greeting us upon arrival and helping us with our bags to our amazing four poster room; cream tea and prosecco in the beautiful garden; our daily game of garden quoits under the beech tree; recommendations offered of local places to visit, gins and wines to try; exquisite floral decorations in the reception and dining room; professional, polite, efficient and friendly waitresses unobtrusively observant of guest needs such as napkins placed across knees, fish knives and steak knives provided where appropriate, the crumbs cleared from the tables prior to dessert, water and wine topped up as required; locally sourced produce cooked to order and accommodating of any dietary requirements; the complimentary hors d'œuvres, amuse-bouche and petits fours accompanying the extensive menu (including a vegetarian selection), plus a nightly special and beautifully presented, delicious cuisine served in generous portions. Many thanks to Hugh, Emma, Chef and all The Beechwood staff for making our stay extra special and a most relaxing and enjoyable experience. We’ll be back!

First visit we actually stayed for 2 nights to celebrate my partners 50th birthday and had dinner as well i dont usually leave reviews but had to after a really enjoyable stay and two excellent meals the staff are first class if you book here you will not be disappointed would recommend 100% will be returning!!

My husband and I stayed for 1 night only, including afternoon cream tea cream tea, dinner and breakfast. I am in a wheelchair and my husband and I were given a ground floor twin room room with all the disabled equipment needed in the bathroom. The room was spacious and patio doors gave us access to our own outdoor table and chairs, with the option to go through to the main garden. Upon our arrival the owner came out to greet us with a smile and a handshake. The manners and attitude of the staff was excellent. When we arrived at dinner a chair had already been removed from the first table to accommodate my wheelchair. The service was excellent and the food top quality. On going back to our room we found the beds prepared for sleeping and the room a comfortable temperature. The only downside was when I transferred from my wheelchair to the bed I found the bed so soft and bouncy I very nearly fell on the floor. The softness of the bed meant I found it very tricky to move myself to the middle of the bed where I felt I wasn't as risk of rolling off the edge! Once comfortable we slept well and the thick curtains meant we didn't wake til gone 8 O'clock! A walk-in shower and disabled shower chair meant I was able to shower independently, which I am unable to do at home. A full English breakfast was just the ticket to see us through the day. and the coffee was spot on. I would certainly recommend Beechwood Hotel as excellent and suitable for wheelchair users. Well done Beechwood.

First visit - Sunday Lunch - excellent food and service - likes pianist . Good value for quality. Will come again . Wine list interesting with South African bias .

We usually go for Sunday lunch but for a change decided to go for Afternoon Tea and we couldn't have made a better choice of venue. As ever Rachel, Dale and the team were attentive and very friendly without being stuffy or overzealous and all our needs were catered for. The tea itself was high quality, very fresh, appealing and super tasty. So much choice offered and a cut above so many other places in the county. Value for money can't be beaten and it knocks spots off a Michelin starred establishment on the North coast. So happy to recommend the Beechwood - keep it up Hugh and the team please!

We went here for the first time (it won't be the last) for dinner. We were met by exceptionally friendly staff in reception and the bar. Drinks were table served, and we were given the excellent menu. I had the chef's special starter and main course...and they were very special. My wife had what she describes as an amazing 'fillet rossini'. All followed by beautifully presented desserts. All the staff in the dining room, and there were many of them, were very polite, friendly, but unobtrusive.

This was our second hotel (from 3) stayed for 2 reasons, 1 ancestry search, 2 Agatha Christie. We were so surprised at the friendly service on arrival, we’d booked the sparkling cream tea which e had in the magnificent garden, the cream tea was wonderful so no room for dinner that night. Our room was large overlooking the garden, beautiful presented, clean and airy. The breakfast and supper food, was excellent, drinks bar was relaxing and well run, looked after all our needs before and during supper. We couldn’t recommend this place more highly, very good value, service second to none.

We were staying in the Norfolk Broads for a week and saw an offer for dinner for two at the Beechwood Hotel on Travelzoo. £39 for two people for a main and desert with coffee and petit fours. I purchased the voucher then contacted the hotel to ask if we could use it on a Saturday evening, that was no problem.

This is a very pleasant hotel very close to the Town Centre of North Walsham which is in itself an ideal base to tour North Norfolk, particularly from Cromer eastwards. Decor in the public rooms in Art Deco and memorabilia form Agatha Christie is on display. The food is excellent, particularly the Cromer Crab and Gressingham Duck. The co owner Hugh has an excellent team - Sam and his colleagues, Shannon, Sarah and Sophia standout. It is very dog friendly.

Booked a meal for 7pm on a Monday evening whilst on holiday in the area. We chose this restaurant mainly because they have a dedicated vegetarian menu offering us non-meat eaters 3 starters and 3 mains to choose from!

We would be hard pushed to find any fault at all. Our welcome was warm and genuine- we were taken on a tour of the hotel by the team member who checked us in; she also took our bags to our room- not something you see too often.

With a warm welcome as we arrived from Hugh the owner, through to excellent personalised service from Sarah, with a lovely food platter and plentiful refills of drinks.., oh and not forgetting our seating in the lovely sunny garden oasis, what an excellent few hours we enjoyed.

On arrival we were greeted at the door by the proprietor and made to feel very special for the entire time we were there.

I treated my mum here for afternoon tea and we were not disappointed!! By no means the cheapest place, however, the selection was amazing. Would definitely recommend!!

Most surprised that one of the staff came out to take our bags to reception, then on up to our rooms. Very friendly and helpful all round, relaxed atmosphere the only too happy to help with anything.

Nice hotel the waiting staff make though.

We have stayed at the hotel 6 times in the last 6 months. We have found it wholly consistent, friendly and comfortable. The rooms are comfortable and well appointed if a little on the dark side. The staff are all very pleasant and helpful. The food is excellent - both dinner and breakfast.

We went for Sunday lunch on the recommendation of two groups of friends. We are so glad we did. The hotel itself is lovely and beautifully decorated in an Art Deco style. You are greeted by the owner Hugh who is charming, welcoming and completely on the ball. He is a man who really cares about his guests. Nothing is too much trouble. The young staff are friendly and obviously well trained. The Art Deco bar, is a delight as is the bright and airy dining room complete with pianist on the occasion of our visit. This really added to the atmosphere. The food was a delight and astonishing value for money given the quality of the food and the surroundings. Hugh spoke to us again as we left and was genuinely keen to know if we had enjoyed ourselves. We told him our lunch had been a delight and that we would be back soon - which we will. Beechwood is a very special place. If you think old fashioned values of quality and service don’t exist any more - the Beechwood will prove you wrong.

This was our first visit to The Beechwood Hotel and right from the very first greeting in the car park when our luggage was taken in for us, the whole experience was wonderful. The staff were bright, friendly and very efficient. The acre of garden was well maintained as was the hotel. We ate in the restaurant on both nights and the quality of food was extremely and lived up to its reputation of gourmet cooking. The breakfast was very comprehensive and good quality. Our room was excellent and comfortable and the large bathroom had a roll top bath! Overall could not fault the hotel and hope to return. Whether it was Sam or Beth in charge they are both a credit to the hotel, as were all the staff.

Normally I wait till I've left before I write a review. I couldn't this time because everything blew me away.

Just returned from an overnight stay at this excellent hotel (TravelZoo special offer of dinner, bed and breakfast). We were warmly greeted by Sam who came to the car to collect our luggage and take it to our room. Delightful room with four poster bed and bathroom with slipper bath. Enjoyed a cream tea in the bar on arrival and still managed a delicious meal in the evening. My husband's venison was outstanding. Breakfast the following morning was equally good with lots of choice and food sourced locally. The staff are an absolute joy, professional yet welcoming and friendly. We were told the owners were away on holiday but without being told we would not have guessed as the staff are a credit to them.

We have stayed at the Beechwood several times over the last few years. Excellent, very friendly, comfortable rooms and superb restaurant with a varied menu and daily chefs specials - all mouthwatering making choices difficult. Hugh the owner is from South Africa and provides a variety of South African wines together with wines from other countries. The wine list gives a good description of the wines.
